Nate Diaz steps in - McGregor fight at 170!!

[BKM-]

the trash talk in fight week will hopefully be unreal.

Diaz is way too stupid to hang with Connor's trash talk.

100% - -but at least he talks back.

Conor is really putting boxing stars to shame. This is something you would never see these boxers do.

Would canelo ever take a fight on 11 days notice against a guy in a higher weiget class? Never!

As far as I'm concerned he's a living legend

I didn't like him at all when his hype first started, but I'll be damned if I denied that I've never been proven so wrong by a fighter before.

Can't help but become a fan of his .

At 170 pounds this could backfire on Conor. Nate loves stand up and Conor is going to oblige but the problem is that at 170 pounds one wonders if Conor will carry his KO power up and if he can take multiple punches from a 170 pounder.

Conor is accustomed to always having a massive size and reach advantage. That advantage will be gone. The extra weight should also means he will be somewhat slower than usual. Don't be surprised if you see Nate outbox Conor...

Nate is also big enough to hold him down in the ground

I guess Conor does believe in his greatness

Diaz is not even close to McGregor's level. He's going to be destroyed. The weight won't matter because Diaz himself is not a 170 pounder.

The Diaz Bros are the best thing that ever happened to Dana White. Look at all their stars that have come and gone but the Diaz bros are still around and get great ratings. When the Diaz brothers have a reach advantage on their opponents they win, no way does Conor want to go to the ground with Diaz either, that Cesar Gracie Jiu Jitsu combined with long limbs would be a nightmare for Conor. Im going with the homie from Stockton by surprise TKO or submission. #WARDIAZ #stocktonmotherf'er

Diaz bros. rep Stockton but live in Lodi lmao

Apples to oranges comparison.

Similar sports, but completely different expectations + fans. In MMA the event is what people come to see. In Boxing its the main event fight. In MMA fans don't care how many L's you got. Conor's got 2 already & people act like he's undefeated. In boxing if you lose one time you suck, two L's & you should retire. There are a ton of big name, late notice fights being made in the UFC & virtually none in boxing. I think maybe Holyfield vs Bert Cooper might be one of the bigger ones that I can recall.
